The results of a search for squarks and gluinos in final states with an isolated electron or muon, multiple jets and large missing transverse momentum using proton-proton collision data at a center-of-mass energy of √ = 13 TeV are presented. The data set used was recorded during 2015 and 2016 by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 f
Reliable measurements are of utmost importance when investigating the relationship between light and human reactions. The aim of the present study was to compare two methods for measuring light exposure in real working environments. Ambulatory recordings of illuminance and irradiance were compared with static field measurements of horizontal illuminance at the normal working position, average hori
Despite their imperative role in water resources management, distributed hydrological models like SWAT require calibration that can be challenging due to uncertainties of parameters involved. Prior to modelling of hydrological processes, these parameters and their uncertainty range need to be identified. The objective of this study was to conduct uncertainty analysis of hydrological processes and
In this research, a straightforward and effective preconcentration technique was developed by integrating three-phase hollow fiber liquid-phase microextraction (HF-LPME) with high-performance liquid chromatography equipped with a photodiode array detector and mass spectrometry (HPLC-DAD/MS) for the simultaneous extraction and quantification of trace levels of tamoxifen (Tam) and clomiphene (Clom)
Objectives To investigate the association of diabetes, hypertension and overweight/obesity with physical activity (PA), self-efficacy for pain and self-efficacy for other symptoms before and after a 6- week exercise and education intervention for knee and hip osteoarthritis (OA), and to assess outcome disparities based on metabolic health. Methods Register-based cohort study using the Swedish Oste
Introduction As care and rehabilitation poststroke are increasingly moving into persons’ home environment, the importance of support from social networks in self-management and rehabilitation has emerged as an important topic for research and practice. While there are instruments used to assess social support and collective efficacy, a clearer scope of the availability and quality of these instrum
Background: Japan lacks efficient assessment tools for occupational balance (OB) in people with mental illness (MI). Aims/objectives: We investigated the test–retest reliability and construct validity of a Japanese version of the Satisfaction with Daily Occupations and Occupational Balance (SDO-OB-J) for people with MI. Methods: SDO-OB-J interviews were conducted twice at a 2-week interval. Result
Background and Goal of StudyWe aimed to develop, implement and evaluate a mobile system using off-the-shelf components, torecord and review simulations and debriefings in four separate rooms during standardized simulation courses at multiple centres in Sweden. Ourrequirements were: high quality sound and video; easy to install, use and demount; suitable for transport by courier; no requirement to
Study region: Lake Vänern, the largest lake in the European Union, located in Sweden. Study focus: The study aimed to develop a spatially complete and temporally continuous lake surface water temperature (LSWT) dataset by fusing satellite remote sensing data with reanalysis products. Five satellite-derived LSWT products, including the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), were eva
To further understand the inter-relationship of the familial transmission of major depression (MD) and alcohol use disorder (AUD), we examine, via a multivariable Cox proportional hazards model, risks for AUD and MD in 1,244,516 individuals born in Sweden from 1970 to 1990 to intact mother-father pairs as a function of parental diagnoses of MD and/or AUD. Across the nine possible mating types, we
Robots operating in real-world settings must manage task variability, environmental uncertainty, and failures during execution. This thesis presents a unified framework for building self-reliant robotic systems by integrating symbolic planning, reinforcement learning, behavior trees (BTs), and vision-language models (VLMs).At the core of the approach is an interpretable policy representation based
Klimatförändringarna förväntas påverka skogar i de tempererade och boreala zonerna och leda till omfattande förändringar i ekosystemens struktur och funktion. Därför behövs analyser av sannolika utfall av olika scenarier av ökad klimatpåverkan på lång sikt, för att förbättra kunskapsunderlaget och stödja beslutsfattande inom skogssektorn. För skogsägare innebär klimatförändringarna ett behov att öClimate change is expected to affect temperate and boreal forests, potentially causing profound changes to the functioning and the structure of ecosystems. This calls for assessments of the plausible long-term outcomes of a range of climate change scenarios to increase the knowledge base for decision making in forestry. Forest owners need to consider whether current silvicultural management practi
As part of its commitment to transparency, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has been developing improved approaches to assessing uncertainty and expressing the degree of certainty in its scientific outputs. The objectives of this workshop were to review and improve the provision of this information by EFSA and its usefulness for risk managers, and to help risk managers to interpret and us
BACKGROUND: There is a growing body of evidence indicating the significant role of the immune system and immune cells in the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the exact role of genes from various immune cell types in AD remains unclear. We aimed to utilize summary data-based Mendelian randomization (SMR) to explore the potential causal relationships between genes in specific immune
Background: The globally transmitted avian malaria parasite Plasmodium relictum (lineage SGS1) has been found to infect hundreds of different bird species with differences in infection outcomes ranging from more or less latent to potentially mortal. However, to date basic knowledge about the links between genetic differentiation and variation in infection outcome within this single malaria parasit
The Chicxulub asteroid that ended the Cretaceous Era ∼66.05 million years ago caused a prolonged time of global darkness – the impact winter – leading to mass extinctions. Elements from the asteroid, including the platinum group elements (PGEs) osmium, iridium and platinum are known from the globally distributed boundary clay but their carrier elements have so far been unknown. We identify, for th
Two synchrotron-based studies on 4H-pyran-4-thione, photoelectron spectroscopy and vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) absorption spectra were performed. A highly resolved structure was observed in the photoelectron spectrum (PES), in contrast to an earlier PES study, where little structure was observed. The sequence of ionic states was determined using configuration interaction and coupled cluster methods.
Background: Young adults experience stressors in their transition to adulthood and are at increased risk of mental ill-health. This risk is compounded by young adults’ low levels of mental health literacy and limited competencies in implementing strategies promoting mental health and well-being in their daily lives. Previous research suggests that digital mental health apps may be particularly eff
Children continue to experience harm when undergoing clinical procedures despite increased evidence of the need to improve the provision of child-centred care. The international ISupport collaboration aimed to develop standards to outline and explain good procedural practice and the rights of children within the context of a clinical procedure. The rights-based standards for children undergoing te
If human behavior is to become more sustainable, people will have to be willing to sacrifice personal gains and benefits for the sake of sustainability. Decisions will have to involve making tradeoffs between what is good for the self and what is good for sustainability. In the present paper, we studied the psychology of such tradeoffs in the context of a carbon dioxide (CO2) emission versus trave
